Vegan Essentials Winner and New Product Review!

Thanks to all of you who entered the Vegan Essentialsgiveaway. The entries were pouring in during my long car ride, and reading them provided much entertainment! Since I'm still traveling, I haven't replied to all of my emails and blog comments yet...oh, but I will eventually! I loved them all! I still have some new blogs to visit, as well.

I know Vegan Essentials also appreciates the love you threw their way. So thanks from them! And keep supporting them and all of our other fun vegan companies.

THE WINNING NUMBER belonged to: THE GOOD LUCK DUCKwho said she was so hungry that even the soy candles looked good. So apparently this gift certificate is going to a worthy recipient. :) Enjoy your Angell bar or Kringle or queso sin queso while riding around in your RV!

Those of you who haven't tired of entering giveaways or can't stand the thought of leaving MoFo without winning SOMETHING, I have ONE MORE PRIZE to hand out. I'll post it tomorrow: there's a hint in THIS POST. (And no, it's not a trip to NYC...)

IN OTHER NEWS:

While milling around the Whole Foods at Columbus Circle, my eyes (bright and happy) settled upon these little treasures I'd never seen before.

Delicious! I've had other peanut butter cups (homemade or from companies) but had yet to ever find any locally. These were closer in size and texture to (insert that mainstream brand of peanut butter cups)than some of the other (yummy) nut butter cups I've ordered. As much as I long to be a pure, very raw, fresh foodie, I receive great joy from buying fun, new vegan treats in packages!!!

I went back and bought another package the next day. There was also $1 off Justin's nut butter coupons inside. We'll use those!

what!!! that sneaky good luck duck won my giveaway also!! she named her blog right!!!! she is so open to veganism, this will be fun for her to try MORE vegan stuff:) (still...darn her!)

ive only had a pb cup that had coconut in it..that wasnt very good (dry with chewy grainy coconut in it) and some homemade ones that turned out pretty well. i really like reviews, and since the nearest store here is really good about ordering stuff people suggest, i just might with these!!

I scoured the candy aisle at Whole Foods yesterday and the Justin's Dark Chocolate PB Cups were on the bottom and all pushed in! If you hadn't mentioned them, I never would've seen them. I bought three packs. $1.99/each.
